Material with Skip Inspection but no Skip-to-stock goods movement

Question

We have a material with the following QM setting:
Inspection Type : 01 (Active)
Skips Allowed = Yes
automatic usage decision = Yes
Inspection with Task list = No
Dynamic Modification Rule = Set
Cont.Ins Lot creation (QMAT-CHG) = "1. For each Material Doc, material, batch and sloc)
Current DMR Stage is a Skip Stage
For the above settings, when a GR is done for a material in Skip status, the system creates a Inspection Lot with status "SKIP" but still moves the stock to Q-stock.
We expect the movement to be to "unrest" but this does not happen. Also, this Q-Stock Stock Type prints on the GR Slip, which incorrectly prompts the goods to be sent to Quality Inspection. This causes a lot of confusion in the GR/Inspection process
I contacted SAP and they came back with this very unclear message:
if you are using any form of the inspection lot collection the quantity of the inspection lot will be cumulated during the goods receipt postings. So a skip-to-stock would be dangerous as no check of the quality (UD) of the coming goods receipt would occur after the first goods receipt
Has anyone else had this issue? Is there a use-exit that will work around this and move stock directly to Unrestricted use stock?

Answer 1

Hi,
We faced the same problem and went back to option:
Cont.Ins Lot creation (QMAT-CHG) = "For each Material Document item
This solves the problem and was in our case the solution for receipts from production. But at goods receipt for purchase orders we still use the option for each material document, batch and SL.
There we pick up the materials in WM by hand by scanning the bar codes on the pallets (printed at GR). The transfer order creates a negative quant in unrestricted use that is later filled by the automatic usage decision that moves the stock from quality to unrestricted in the same bin.
Hope this helps.....
